Cat’s Heavenly Bakes

Happy Easter 🐣😍

Delighted to make this dinosaur themed birthday cake for my god daughter’s 3rd birthday party. Also made dinosaur chocolates and dinosaur biscuits to go in the party bags.
All in all, I think it was a ROAR-img success 🦖😂

What do you do to unwind? Work has been MENTAL recently so I decided to take some time to do some baking (forgot how much it eases my mind). Might not be a glamorous cake but these apple, cinnamon and oat cooking definitely did the head good and are healthier than my usual bakes (so I can eat 5 right? 🤷🏻‍♀️)
A reminder to myself to bake when life gives you lemons or apples 😂

This time last week I made this cake and can you imagine, even though it was my birthday it wasn’t for me 😭
Made this beauty for a friends nephew’s 18th. Wish I could say I made the macarons but after two tries, I gave up and bought them from M&S 🤦🏻‍♀️
I will persevere and try again in the future 😂

A new recipe 🥰 first time baking in a wee while. Millionaire Cupcakes. Yum yum

Merry Christmas ya filthy animals 😍

I was very fortunate enough to be asked to make this eggless Victoria Sponge Cake for little Iona’s christening yesterday 😍
First time making flowers out of buttercream and delighted how the full cake turned out for the special day 🥰

3rd cake in a week 😴
Delighted to be given a chance to make my first Fault Line Cake. Such a cool way to decorate and very happy of how it turned out 🥰
It has been cake galore this week but enjoyed every minute of making them and feel I am exploring new cakes with every bake 👩‍🎨

Hello everyone! Been a while since I’ve posted 🤦🏻‍♀️ have been very busy outside of baking but a few things I’ve done in the last wee while. Got a few things lined up so excited to get back to creating some cakes and cupcakes 😍

I made this triple chocolate cake for my sisters 40th birthday. It was devoured VERY quickly 😍
Happy Birthday to my eldest sister Eilidh Mccready, 40 today ❤️

Who doesn’t like Mario Brothers? Would love to say I made this topper but thank goodness for Amazon. The rest of the cake was all me.
Was really impressed with the vibrant colours of the stencil. Made this for my friends friends son.
Happy birthday Rueben 🥳

What to do when you have left over chcolate cake 🤷🏻‍♀️
MAKE GEOMETRIC HEARTS ♥️
Love the look of these hearts filled with chocolate cake and butter icing! Tasting and looking delicious... great combo!!🥰

Been a wee while since I’ve baked but what’s better than cake... CHOCOLATE CAKE 🥰
Was really happy how this cake turned out. A surprise in the middle with some crispy M&Ms to give it that extra bit of colour 🌈

Can’t believe this baking was two years ago 🙈 where has the time gone?
I made these biscuits and cake for my God Daughters Baby Shower. This was the first time making proper ‘fancy things’ and I was terrified.
I practiced the biscuits twice and the cake three times for the big day!
I was especially proud of the cake as it looked pretty basic on the outside but it was all about the reveal in the middle.
Loved every stressful second of these treats ❤️ 👶🏼 🍼 🐘

Another weekend, another cake made 🥰
Delighted to have been asked to make this multicoloured rainbow cake for my friends Mum’s 65th birthday. The cake vanilla sponge with jam and vanilla buttercream cake. It was the first time trying out this style and I am really happy with the outcome.
Feel like I’m learning something new on every bake 👩‍🍳
Happy Sunday everyone 🌈💕

What is better than chocolate cake? NUTELLA chocolate cake 😋
Got asked to make this cake for a Nutella NUT and luckily it went down a treat 😍
This 3 layer chocolate cake had Nutella butter icing and a Nutella drip with white chocolate to decorate.
Apparently it was hard to taste better than it looked but it did. Such amazing feedback 🥰
Nothing makes me happier than hearing the bakes I make can put smiles on people’s faces (and fill their bellies)... especially during these tough times
I am so grateful to everyone who has supported me and asked for bakes, thank you 😊

Happy Valentines Day from me to you 💕

Happy Snowy Hump-day ⛄️

I was asked by my pal to make some delicious cakes and treats for a homemade Afternoon Tea. I went for triple chocolate brownies, lemon drizzle cupcakes and classic scones to keep the whole family happy.

This went dow a treat for a snowy Half Term Wednesday. Box was enough to feed 6 people (or 4 with some yummy leftovers 🤤).

If you would like something similar (can change the treats to suit you and your family/friends) please get in touch 👩‍🍳

Valentines Day is just around the corner 💕
If you are looking for any sweet treats for your loved one, please send me a message. I can do a range of bakes from cupcakes, biscuits and chocolates all themed for Valentines Day 😍

Happy Friday Folks. Another week down and another week closer to getting out of this pandemic. Another reason to be happy... BISCOFF Cake 🥰
I made this delicious cake last week for a birthday surprise. Was pretty happy with the symmetry inside (my OCD was very much at play on this one).
If you have any birthdays coming up that you want to make extra special, please give me a shout. 👩‍🍳 🎂 😋

So it’s Blue Monday meaning the most depressing day of the year. Well, there is only one thing to do today to make it better... bake 👩‍🍳

I made these as a practice for Valentines Day which in LESS THAN A MONTH AWAY PEOPLE!!

If you would like something a bit special this Valentines Day (been a pretty hard start to the year), these chocolate cupcakes with white chocolate butter icing are the business 🥰

I will be doing boxes of 6 for £12 or boxes of 12 for £24. Please send me a message to order. Can deliver in or around Edinburgh 💞

Happy New Year!! Had a wee rest from baking since the madness that was the lead up to Christmas and Christmas itself.
Since it’s January and most people are coming out of a food coma I thought I’d share a recipe for these yummy and slightly healthy banana and peanut butter cookies.
1 mashed banana
150g smooth peanut butter
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup
170g rolled oats
30g dried cranberries (optional)
30g chocolate chips (optional)
Turn oven on to 180 deg and put all the ingredients in a big bowl and combine it. Put grease proof paper on a big baking tray and make balls from the dough. Spread them out a bit on the tray. Use the back of a fork to spread out the dough. Bake these for 12-14mins and eat warm or cold. Enjoy and please let me know if you give these (healthy) cookies a go 🥰
Stay safe everyone xx
